This is just going to add salt to an already open wound, but mine, converted, is right about the same price.
 
University of Twente WLAN:
 
$60/mth gets me this with 15GB peak/ 30GB off peak DL
 

And that's with $75 a month :lol: The internet connection is running off my dad's work, practically next door to my house. It's not a secure wireless connection :sly:

I get about half that for $40/month.

Whoa that's fast... compared to mine:


Not bad eh?
 
Not bad... this is now connected to my home server, on my laptop:
 
My brother and my sister-in-law will be moving stuff from this house I'm in to their new house. One of the things that could be moved is the wireless router and the broadband Internet access I've enjoyed since September. I may go back to dialup. Keyword- MAY. So I'll have to see what happens if I can still be on here regularly with wireless broadband.
 


Comcast.. kinda slow when I know some Verizon FiOS guys are getting double the speed for the same price. :(

We pay $50 a month and get 50gb a month, the download is way to slow though, we can download to 160kb/s MAX. Hopefully we will get adsl 2+ next year:D.

I get 5GB/month... :nervous:

My upload speed just skyrocketed!:scared:
 
Okay. All is well. My brother and sister-in-law got themselves a new wireless broadband router. So all is well. However, I do wonder what it would be like if I had Wireless-G+ or Wireless-N...

Unless you have an internet connection that can top out 802.11g (very unlikely), the only benefit would be for file transfer over your private network.
 

Home conn from Time Warner. $80 a month for internet and phone combo.

As they run more fiber around me, my speed is slowly going up. 👍

Slowly, slowly.
 
ADSL2+. Though, still too slow.
 
I have a horribly unstable ADSL2+ connection (I think it's a line fault), and probably because of that, the not-so-good ADSL2+ speeds

I would LOVE to have something that fast.
 
At work:



I wish I had this speed at home.
 

I just got a free upgrade from 3Mb to 7.6Mb and from 30Gb/month download limit to unlimited bandwidth.
 
Win?

You got that in Aus? Where the hell do you live and what type of connection do you have?

 

Fail?



EDIT: Some of these past results under my IP aren't me. :boggled:





And most of mine aren't there. :boggled:
 
9ms to an Adelaide server? you're in Melbourne.
For some reason Melbourne takes longer, it's really bizarre.

For some reason Canberra actually gives me the fastest speed.

One of the perks of working in the IT Division of a University which happens to also be next door to Telstra. We're upgrading our lines soon too, so should get a little bit faster.
 
Canberra has less people using their services, which will give you a much better ping(less the better). A lower ping gives you a better connection also.
